Cleaning out some old images.

vinyl flip, lacquer and poly bag in paper envelope.

Let em sit in the garage window for ...I think.. a few months. ???

    a useless exercise without pictures of the coins before you placed them where you did.

    What was your intent? Were you just evaluating the different storage for preservation? Or degree of tarnish? Cheers, RickO

    You can use the lacquered for the example. These were new.

    And yes, ricko, it was checking storage. I had some in Capital and some in a discontinued flannel lined envelope that was supposed to be the BEST.

    This test was in 1977.

    Test preparation was exhaustive.
